      This is Ozma. They’re known for heavy bias and axe grinding. It attacks Democrats and that’s what was important to them. Not factualness or logic.

      People trying like crazy to push all the blame on Democrats and Harris. Because after all. If they only did this one magic thing they would never lose. Right? It’s freaking magic. How could they lose.

      Don’t get me wrong. Democrats absolutely deserve some blame. But I’m sure all the people that spent the whole general shouting that “they’re both the same”, “blue maga”, “genocide Joe/Harris” surely couldn’t have disenfranchised and demotivated people to stay home. They all got played and are trying to absolve themselves.

      Which is weird because:

      Arizona - Right to Abortion. Yes 61 to 39
      Colorado - Right to Abortion. Yes 62 to 38
      Florida - Right to Abortion. No 43 to 57 - Needed Yes >= 60 to pass.
      Maryland - Right to Abortion. Yes 74 to 26
      Missouri - Right to Abortion. Yes 52 to 48
      Montana - Right to Abortion. Yes 58 to 42
      Nebraska - Right to Abortion. No 52 to 48
      Nebraska - Prohibit abortions after 1st Trimester - Yes 55 to 45
      Nevada - Right to Abortion. Yes 64 to 36
      New York - Right to Abortion. Yes 62 to 38
      South Dakota - Right to Abortion. No 59 to 41

      Except for Florida, Nebraska and South Dakota, looks like people do support womens rights.

        They do, but as a Missourian. I can 100% say they have no clue about how to do it. Legalizing abortion again, but electing the man that will get it nationally banned. It may be largely willful ignorance and apathy. But that doesn’t mean it can’t also be sexism and misogynistic attitudes too. They can support their personal right to choose but not give a damn about anyone else. After all there were Nazi jews. I have little doubt there are misogynistic women. For some of them it’s about there personal rights. Cognitive dissonance makes it for some really f***** up situations.

        Hey Florida got more than 50%, 3 other states would have banned abortion if they had the same % to win. Even the case to change it to 60% to win… got 57% support.

    The whole “voters rejected a woman of color” thing is because the party wants an excuse to shut down an AOC run.
